I'm a new Gentoo user, although not to Linux in general.  I'm trying to
install Gentoo on an older HP Pavilion with a k6-2 333 processor.  All
has gone well to this point - I have the base install (I started from a
stage 3 install), as well as X installed and operating. (Both -mcpu and
-march are set to k6-2 in make.conf)

I encountered a problem trying to install KDE.  After starting with
"emerge kde", it ran for a while and halted with an error on trying to
compile libvorbis-1.0.1.  The problem occurs as the compiler is
compiling floor1.c.  I receive an error that looks like:

{standard input}: Assembler Message
{standard input}: 13439 Error Value of ffffffffffffff7e too large for
field of 1 bytes at 0000000000004b4e

I have deleted the portage directories for libvorbis, resynced, and
re-emerged it.  No success.  I re-emerged libogg, which is required by
libvorbis, and it compiled successfully.  However this didn't fix
libvorbis - it still fails in the same place.

I have also googled, to no avail, either.

Can anyone shed some light on what I can do to get past this error?  I
have piped the messages to files, if that would help anyone.

Thanks,

Bob
